Kermanshah is a province in western Iran, and the city of the same name serves as its capital. The region is best known for its Kurdish culture and for its ancient archaeological sites, which give a visit a strong sense of the long past of the area.
What the province offers
- Kurdish culture: The province is home to a Kurdish population, and visitors who take an interest in the language, customs and daily life of the region will find this a distinctive part of Iran to explore.
- Archaeological sites: Kermanshah is noted for its ancient sites, which make it a natural choice for travellers interested in history and early settlement.
- The city of Kermanshah: As the provincial capital, the city is the natural base for exploring the wider area and for seeing the region's everyday life up close.
Planning a visit
Kermanshah suits travellers who want to go beyond the most familiar stops in Iran and spend time with a region shaped by its own culture and history. Because the sites are spread across the province, it is worth planning your route in advance and allowing time to move between the city and the places around it. Set aside time for the city itself, and for the archaeological sites that first drew many visitors to the area.
